Can someone else besides myself please test the proposed patch I posted to the 
bug report below [1] ?

Even though I already extensively tested the patch by loading several heavy 
and complex sites while limiting the maxSlaveInstances and 
maxSlaveInstancesPerHost values in the http{s}.protocol files to 4 and 2 
respectively, the more testing this patch receives from different use cases 
the better. 

This fix needs to be applied before 4.4.1 ; otherwise every application that 
uses kdewebkit will simply spawn a ridiculous number of ioslaves for a given 
request.

Thanks,
Dawit A.
